Booby Moon is a beautifully illustrated rhyming storybook specifically designed to emotionally support both mother and child during the weaning process from breastfeeding. The book provides a magical and heartwarming experience that celebrates this important milestone in a child's life.
Unlike most weaning storybooks that simply introduce the concept of breastfeeding ending soon, Booby Moon goes beyond that. It offers toddlers a captivating story to connect with, a special celebration to look forward to, and a beautiful ritual to help them say goodbye to Booby Milk.
The concept of Booby Moon is inspired by the way the Tooth Fairy makes children happy about their teeth falling out. Similarly, the story of Booby Milk flying away to Booby Moon can give a weaning toddler the same sense of wonder and excitement.
The authors' personal experience using Booby Moon for weaning their own "boob-mad" 2-year-old was incredible. After saying goodbye to Booby Milk, the child simply accepted its absence, occasionally asking for it but quickly being reminded of how they had let it go. Instead of tears and tantrums, the child expressed excitement and joy, exclaiming, "Yeah, I let go! And Booby went shhhhheewww up to the moon!"
Booby Moon's magical element and the ritual aspect of the weaning process are what make it so special. Studies show that the practice of ritual during times of loss can alleviate grief, foster a sense of closeness with loved ones, and help in saying goodbye. The Booby Moon ritual allows the child to witness the magic of Booby Milk leaving, fostering an easeful acceptance of its departure.
The story also provides comfort and reassurance after weaning, reassuring the child that the relationship with their mother continues, and that they can still wave up to Booby Moon while receiving love, cuddles, and comfort from their caregiver.
In addition to the captivating story, the book includes a gentle-parenting user guide that covers various aspects of the weaning process, such as how to wean using Booby Moon, night weaning, breaking the fed-to-sleep habit, and ideas for a meaningful goodbye ritual.
The Booby Moon concept was created in 2020 by a breastfeeding mother who was ready to wean but couldn't find a children's book that offered her toddler an uplifting experience during this transition. The book's success in their own home led to the decision to share it with parents around the world.
Booby Moon is suitable for toddlers aged 18 months to 4 years and features an illustration of a mother cuddling her toddler to sleep instead of nursing them at night (bed-sharing). The books are printed on demand by Amazon, and any printing quality issues or errors can be addressed by contacting Amazon for a refund or replacement.
